    Ruling Miscut card legality

    Bit late to this.. but for future readers.... I am a judge and I play misscut cards in my decks... The card must have the following information. Card name, Set #, retreat cost, attacks, and all pertinent information must be clearly visible. Since you cannot see Groudon in it's name then it is...

    Ruling Does Pokemon Ranger Deny M Beedrill"s 4 Poison?

    This was already addressed in another question so I feel like I can post on the matter... http://www.pokebeach.com/forums/threads/m-beedrill-ex-pokemon-ranger.136256/ In short, it just counts as a buffed special condition and isn't affected by Ranger.

    Ruling Magearna's Ability

    Magearna's ability does not interact with Lucario at all. Lucario's damage isn't considered an effect, it's just the terms of how the damage is calculated.

    Ruling Magearna's Ability

    Just to clarify... it will still do damage to those pokemon that don't have metal energies attached to them.

    Ruling Weakness vs resistance

    Which one is calculated first? Weakness or resistance? If bisharp hits for retaliate for 30, is it... 30X2-20 = 40? Or is it 30-20 x2 = 20?

    Discussion Decks with Potential for After Upcoming Rotation

    Fighting decks are pretty gimped imo. Garchomp is completely useless without Korinna and fighting stadium. This also hurts Zygarde. Also without startling megaphone garb is really hard to deal with.

    Kinda what I thought, thanks for the clarification.

    Ruling Fright night & Garbodor

    Lets say Garb has a float stone attached to it. Does Yveltal shut down garbotoxin?

    Ruling Fates Collide Bronzong

    Like I said, it was the announcement from the head judge at Origins, Origins was a state level tournament, so i'm assuming that's the official ruling. He called it an official ruling as well.

    Ruling Fates Collide Bronzong

    Whoa, I don't know if I can make an official comment, but at the Origins tournament they did have an official ruling. The ruling is that Bronzong would block the ability lock for the bench as long as he stays on the bench, but if Bronzong becomes the active it no longer blocks the shadow...

    Greninja BREAK

    The M-Sceptile is just a bad matchup, I got lucky with the Tie. He had a rough start and I killed his sceptile before he set it up since he wiffed the energy, I kept shadow stitching to prevent his shaymin. I didn't bother scooping Round 1, round 2 I won in a very long game, as soon as we dealt...

    Greninja BREAK

    I played Jimmy (the winner) with my Greninja deck, I lost 1-2 against him, the game I won I was able to set up and megaphone his garb, then nuke him down in 1 turn. With the popularity of the garb/darkrai deck at Origins, I think running 2 megaphone is a fine idea. There were also lots of metal...

    Discussion Octillery VS Shaymin in Night March

    Right, but it's all about that turn 1 setup... if it takes you until turn 2 to get octillary running and octillary can only use his ability once per turn. Also having an ultra ball is better than a level ball because you want to discard junk out of your hand get get nightmarchers in the discard...

    Discussion Which M-Manectric EX Variant Plays Better?

    Usually you only have 1-2 jolteon in the manectric deck, the rest is usually either regice/articuno/raiku, or some other pokemon. I ran 2 at states, but dropped down to 1 after. It is really good against toad/tina and night march, but you really need to get it powered up on your first turn, that...

    Ruling Can Hydreigon EX attack Jolteon EX?
